Abstract:

Traditional historiography has claimed that, from 1897 to 1922, Greek Cypriots served in droves in the Greek army, thus exhibiting their loyalty to their alleged motherland. But the number of Greek Cypriot volunteers in the Greek army from 1912 to 1922 was minuscule, especially compared to the numbers serving in the British army from 1916 to 1920. Additionally, many Cypriots with Greek citizenship avoided and/or refused to enlist in the Greek army when called up during the Great War, while other Greek Cypriots (who had British Cypriot national status) were seemingly kidnapped in Egypt, Greece, and parts of Greek-occupied Anatolia, and were forced to serve during the 1919–1922 Greco-Turkish War. More men served as auxiliaries in the British forces during the Great War and many preferred to be protected by the British from serving in the Greek forces from 1919 to 1922. These preferences have implications for the traditional nationalist narratives surrounding the formation of Greek ethno-national identity and universal anti-colonialism in pursuit of énōsis (unification of Cyprus with Greece) in Cyprus.

1914–1922年希腊军队中的希族塞人“志愿者”:忠诚度和身份查询

摘要:

传统史学声称,从1897年到1922年,希族塞人成群结队地在希腊军队中服役,从而表现出对所谓祖国的忠诚。但是1912年至1922年希腊军队中希族塞人的志愿者人数很少,特别是与1916年至1920年在英军中服役的人数相比。此外,许多具有希腊国籍的塞浦路斯人回避和/或拒绝加入希腊。军队在一次大战期间被召唤,而其他希族塞人(具有英属塞族国民身份)似乎在埃及,希腊和希腊占领的安纳托利亚部分地区被绑架,并被迫在1919–1922年间服役。战争。énōsis(塞浦路斯与希腊统一)。
